Ma Delta and Trooper (through 2/8/22)
Ma Delta & DM/Delta Male (4/27/22 - )

eaglet not named

With thanks to the many people who contributed to HWF's GoFundMe campaign, we were able to install a new nest on a pole in late summer 2022, to replace the dying tree that held their previous nest. However, the eagles always have the final word - and they appear to be building a nest on a nearby power tower, unfortunately out of sight of the cams at the new nest.
Ma Delta was limping when we last saw her in 2022, having apparently reinjured the leg she broke back in 2014; as of November 29, we have not been able to tell if she is still limping - or even confirm that this is Ma and DM (Delta Male).
As of March 28, I'm pretty sure Ma is back and think it's likely her mate is DM; Ma has brought food to the new nest on the pole a few times, and she seems to be favoring her injured leg, but is able to use it; we don't have a view of the nest they are building on the power tower, so don't know where they are in the nesting process. Observers noticed changes in behavior of the adults March 13-14 which might indicate that an egg was laid around that time, though we can't be sure.
Because it's not an easy nest to see from the ground, and access is limited, all dates are approximate; If the first egg was laid on March 13, it might have hatched in about 38 days, which would be around April 20. 12 weeks from April 20 is July 13, which might be around the time the eaglet fledged - though some eaglets don't fledge until 14 weeks or later.
The eaglet was seen perched on the tower August 4, and might have found a way to climb there - or might have been flying for a while. Two eagles were seen on the nest on August 8; the observer couldn't confirm white head or tail given the distance and the angle, so we don't know if one was the fledgling or if both were adults..
The male has not yet been named yet because observers haven't gotten to know him, and the eaglet was not named for the same reason. If we are able to get a cam looking at the nest they are using next year, it's likely that DM will get a name.
As of August 16, no eagles have been seen since August 8.

new cam for 2021

adults not named yet

The cam stopped working in December 2021, and HWF was unable to fix it during the legal window to approach a nest in 2022, so no cam for 2023, though we are hoping for some reports from local observers.
The eagles used their alternate nest in 2023 and successfully fledged one eaglet; a local photographer caught the fledge.

new cam for 2022

adults not named?

Update - March 28 - I've found some information on the GROWLS Eagle Nest Cam Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/groups/302689416832804); it appears that the property owners have asked that there not be a cam this year (this is the nest that raised a hawk chick along with their eaglet, and may have become a bit too popular); there is a chance they will have a cam on a different nest, but at this point, they do not have a likely candidate.
As a followup to last year, a local observer reported that the hawklet Malala was being seen with the adults on the beach and seemed to be doing well - apparently young hawks stay with their parents longer than eaglets, and the parents are accepting this.
The Facebook group was paused on March 29.

Dad (2018's New Dad) and Lady
(official names Duffer & Dimple, or Mr & Mrs D)

The pair prepared a lovely nest and spent time there in 2020 but didn't lay any eggs; 2021 was a repeat of 2020; still hoping....
Dimple laid two eggs in 2022 - possibly her first ever, since she appeared young when she first arrived at the nest. Unfortunately Duffer was injured in a territorial fight at about the time the eggs were laid, and did not share in the incubation, so the eggs failed to hatch. Duffer appeared to recover physically fairly quickly, but (in non-biologist terms) was distracted and perhaps lost the instinct to care for the eggs.
Keeping fingers crossed that it all comes together in 2023.
The cam went offline on March 14, and as of May 2nd, it hasn't come back on its own (as has happened before) and we have not been able to have anyone check on it.
The cam did not come back online, and observers who visited the site said they did not appear to be raising chick, at least in the nest they had used before (and which they were preparing when the cam went down).

The Hornby Eagle Group Projects Society announced that 2022 would be the last year that they would broadcast the cam stream, and the cam was removed on September 12.
Not sure if there will be ground reports.
As of mid-April, the original nest tree and a number of nearby trees have been cleared; I did not find any reports of a new nest, though eagles are quite determined to nest so there may be one somewhere.
The Our Nature Zone forum reported that the pair built a new nest and fledged two eaglets; they also announced that the forum was closing September 7.

Pa and unnamed female

I believe they had at least one chick in 2023, but it appeared to have died before fledging.

Pa and Missy

Rey (M) & Brit (F) (2022 - )

SR7/Lof
SR8/Tyr

The new pair did not nest in 2022, but have been busy preparing a nest since they returned from their summer break, so we're hoping for eggs in the spring.
The eagles formerly known as SM (Surrey Male) & SF (Surrey Female) were named this spring: the male is Rey (from Surrey) and the female is Brit (from British Columbia)
Brit laid her first egg at 4:22 pm on March 24th and her second was actually a bit less than a full 3 days later, at 3:01 pm on March 27th; both deliveries appeared quick and easy - good to see for this first time mom!
Note: the numbering system is for chicks that hatched in the territory since we set up the cams, not by a particular pair; SR1 through SR6 were produced by our previous pair Sur and Res; we believe Rey and Brit are both young, and these are the first eggs for either of them.
The eggs hatched less than a day apart - I wonder if the adults were practicing delayed incubation, or if it just took them several days to figure out how to sit on an egg to keep it at optimum temperature.
June 28 - older SR7 is named Lof (an old Norse word for praise or glory) and younger SR8 is named Tyr (for the Norse god of courage)
July 19 - older eaglet Lof bumped into Tyr and knocked the younger, much smaller eaglet off the nest; Tyr's right leg had been injured in early June and he/she fell behind in development - and recently Tyr had seemed to have little energy and be a bit unsteady on his/her feet. Happily David Hancock was able to get to the site quickly, and Tyr is now at the Orphaned Wildlife Rehab (OWL); David reported that Tyr was very thin, which may be why the feisty young eagle had seemed less active recently. Hoping for the best.
July 22 - sad news - Tyr passed away during the night; he weighed 1560gm or 3.4 pounds at intake, less than half of what he should have weighed a month ago, and Rob from OWL said he didn't remember ever seeing a bird this thin that recovered - but we were so hoping.... He would have been 81 days old this morning. Rest in peace, feisty young eagle, and fly free forever, far beyond the sky.

Note: the chicks are named by the landowner following the aviation alphabet, so occasionally we have unusual names for the eaglets.

The eggs were scavenged by ravens on March 7.

A new female arrived around February 10 and was seen from time to time through the rest of the season; she was identified as 41/A - Kaiannika, a 2019 chick from Sauces Canyon.

The oldest chick fell from the nest during the night of April 21-22 (there's no IR so we don't know what exactly happened); happily IWS was able to get permission to rescue the eaglet, and it was returned to the nest the morning of April 24 after a quick health check by the IWS team. They reported that there was food in the chick's crop, so one of the adults had been feeding it on the ledge where it landed; the chick was about 3 weeks old at the time.
May 24 - band numbers described as "not sure as far as band numbers vs. the hatch order with the older two, but ... the males are 45D & 46D, youngest to oldest & the female is 47D
June 2 - eaglet 45/D was rescued from the nest after it was observed that they had swallowed a fish hook; the chick is on its way to a rehab in San Diego for treatment, and they are hoping to be able to return it to the nest in time for fledging; I'm not sure which is which, but the chicks are about 8 weeks old.
June 7 - sad news - the less invasive methods were not able to remove the hook, so the eaglet had surgery today; the surgery went well, but the chick declined rapidly afterwards and went into cardiac arrest, and died soon afterwards. His body will be sent for necropsy; their current theory is zinc toxicosis from the hook. Rest in peace, young one, and fly free forever, far beyond the sky.

Perhaps there will be a new breeding pair in the area next season. (https://www.facebook.com/groups/ChannelIslandEagleLovers/posts/5790641617670673/)

February 16 - IWS reported that the Fraser Point pair has built a new nest one drainage to the south of their former nest; Dr Sharpe said the new tree was higher and better shaded, so safer than the old one - but it's not within sight of the live cam and won't be easy for them to access for banding.

adults A40(M)/Jak & A48(F)/Audacity

Sad new - Mom Audacity was caught by a gust of wind around 2 am on February 6 and the first egg broke while she was trying to right herself - a tragic accident, but this pair has had issues with eggs breaking more than most pairs, and weakness in the shell may be a factor.
Second egg broke within two hours after it was laid. Sort of hoping for a third egg.
She laid a third egg, and it also broke within two hours; it was mentioned on Facebook that they had tested the shells in the past, and the issue didn't seem to be the DDT that had caused thin shells in the early days of the bald eagle restoration project on the islands, but might be a genetic flaw in Audacity's reproductive system. Sad news.
The fourth egg broke within minutes of being laid; the fifth egg lasted more than a day, but broke before 1 am on February 17.
Six eggs - wow. And sadly it broke immediately. She did lay 8 eggs in 2017 - five in a first clutch (Jan 31 - Feb 12) and three in a second clutch (Mar 3 - Mar 12), and I'm thinking that while second clutches are fairly rare, they are generally at least 3-4 weeks after the first clutch, so while I'm not an expert, I'm thinking that with only an 8-day gap, this isn't really a second clutch - which is not to say that she won't lay one or two more - she's a very strong eagle!
7th egg on February 27, and it's still there on March 2nd, when she laid an 8th egg - wow!
March 3 - back to one egg; observers think it's #7 and #8 broke shortly after it appeared.
Final egg collapsed on April 21.

February 25 - it appears that Guardian was injured, probably in a fight with another eagle; one of the injuries was near an eye, but it looks as if the eye is OK, and he and Liberty are together so hopefully all is well.
Sad news - the remaining egg burst on March 28 at 2:48 am, which was day 39; there was no sign of a near-term chick, and generally eggs don't burst like that unless develpment stops fairly early in the process.

SL4

As of January 2022, the eagles have moved to a new location that is too far from the Nature Center at the Standley Lake Park for a camera, so they will be focusing their camera on Bird Island, with a heron rookery and lots of other wildlife, and hope to have occasional updates from the woman who monitors the nest for the Bird Conservancy and Colorado Parks & Wildlife; eagles do visit Bird Island.
Observers reported behavior suggesting there was an egg on the morning of February 27, and because this pair has typically laid eggs in the evening, they suspect the first egg was laid in the evening of February 26.
As of February 28, the folks at Standley Lake Regional Park announced that they would be calling the adults Dad and Mom; they aren't banded and without a cam this year, they can't confirm that it's the same pair as before.
Sad news here - the nest fell down on April 4, and eaglet SL4 did not survive. Rest in peace, tiny one.

Window to Wildlife installed and streams the cams

CE9/Connick (M)

The nest was blown down at the end of September, one small part of the huge impact Hurricane Ian had on Sanibel Island. Power and internet on the island also went down (the cams stopped streaming at 3:38 am on September 28). The folks at Window to Wildlife who stream the cam reported on the 30th that the tree was still standing; Window to Wildlife also had cameras on an osprey platform on a pole, and we learned on October 13 that the pole went down during the storm. Observers reported seeing Connie and Clive on October 6. The causeway to the island was destroyed by the storm, so access was by boat or helicopter. On October 11, it was reported that they would try to rebuild the nest (one of the main branches supporting it broke, causing it to fall), The causeway was repaired enough for emergency vehicles to cross on October 11, and utility vehicles went across to begin repairs on power and internet lines. By October 20, it appeared the Connie and Clive were in the area and were trying to find a tree strong enough for a new nest but there weren't a lot of choices; a plan was put together for a team to try to go to Captiva in early November to put a new platform on their old nest tree. (Off topic - the osprey pole was put back up by October 26, and female Lena was seen bringing sticks within minutes of the pole being set up.) The team from Window to Wildlife returned to Captiva on November 4, and over the course of several days were able to rebuild a nest in the eagles' previous tree and add cameras for both the eagle and osprey nests; internet service is not expected to be restored until December, so the cams are not yet streaming. On November 21, it was reported that the eagles were spotted in the rebuilt nest in their old tree, and it was confirmed on December 1st that they were bringing twigs and grass to the rebuilt nest. The cam went live on December 11 - and there were two eggs! While the internet wasn't ready for streaming, the local hosts were able to watch some of the time, so we have the date and time for the first egg; the cam was offline even locally when the second was laid. Amazing news all around.
The second egg didn't hatch and was buried by Mom Connie on January 24 (day 49).
As of the beginning of April, CE9/Connick was doing great - flapping and branching - but on April 2nd he/she appeared to lose a flight feather from his right wing, and then lost two feathers (that we saw) from the left wing the next day, and another the following day; that evening (April 4th) he appeared to miss a step while branching and fell from the nest. Fortunately the nest is only about 40 feet high, and he was quickly found by neighbors who kept watch until someone sent from the rescue/rehab organization CROW was able to get him an hour later. They reported the next morning that he appeared to be anemic, and might have eaten something contaminated by rat poison, so they were starting pre-emptive treatment for that while waiting for test results.
As of May 5, Connick's bloodwork has stabilized, and he has been transferred to the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey in Matiland, Florida which has flight cages (most if not all of the ones at CROW were destroyed by the hurricane, though they are rebuilding). He is doing well there, and the follicles where he lost feathers look healthy, so we are hoping the feathers will grow back and he will be able to be released.
May 31 - I think observers had suspected that Connick was male - and today we got confirmation when the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey reported he is indeed a male.

banded April 27
R4 (M)/green 5/black 4
R5 (M)/green 5/black 5

Sad news to start the season - female Rita was found in critical condition with a severely broken right wing on November 27, and transported to Wildlife Rescue of Dade County, then to Zoo Miami's Animal Hospital on the 28th; they report that she may have been injured several days before she was rescued, so there is also an increased risk of infection or other complications. Hoping for the best.
It was reported on December 22 that Rita was healing better than they had feared, but they needed to remove the tip of her wing to prevent infection from spreading; the loss of the flight feathers on that part of the wing beyond the "wrist" means she can never be released back to the wild, but she has a chance at life as an educational eagle (if the infection had spread to the next section of the wing, they would have been required to euthanize her because she wouldn't be able to keep her balance with so much wing missing).
Other females began visiting the nest on December 19, and by December 25 it appeared that a young female with some shading on her head had become Ron's new partner and she was named Rose; the coloring suggests she hatched in 2018.
Eaglets were banded on April 27; R4 has green 5/black 4 band; R5 has green 5/black 5 band; testing showed that R4 was male but the test for R5 was inconclusive and will be repeated.
May 17- R5 (age 62 days/almost 9 weeks) slipped from the nest this morning; the eaglet was rescued and they are hoping to return the eaglet to the nest after being evaluated.
Good news - they were able to return R5 to the nest late that afternoon.
May 24 - I saw an announcement on Facebook that R5 is also a male; I had seen that they had planned to do another test while he was being evaluated after his fall on the 17th, and apparently the results are in.
May 29 - R5 slipped from the nest again this morning, and is now at the Wildlife Rescue of Dade County; he's 74 days old now, so close to fledging.
May 30 - R5 was returned to the nest for a second time this morning; I suspect they felt comfortable doing that because R4 had fledged so they didn't have to worry about the other eaglet jumping as they approached. Hopefully this time R5 will stay there until he's ready to intentionally fledge.

This area was also hit by Hurricane Ian and the nest tree was blown down; the eagles are OK and are being seen perching, but if they have a new nest, it has not been discovered as of early December.

adults Samson (M) and Gabrielle (F)

(they assign numbers to eggs rather than chicks)
next egg will be NE28

As of November 30, Samson hasn't been seen since November 25 (last sighting on cam was the evening before); a young adult (about 5 years old) has been seen in the area; keeping fingers crossed for Samson's safe return. As of December 5. Samson has not been seen; a male being called V2 (for visitor 2) is being seen fairly often and while Gabby isn't exactly welcoming him, she seems to be accepting his presence; I'm not sure if V2 is a young male or if he is a mature adult with either stains on some of his white feathers or an unusual color variation.

February 3 - a local photographer got a picture yesterday of Harriet in which it appeared that she had fishing line and a sinker hanging from her beak (another observer thought it was saliva from a pellet); she did not return to the nest last night as she usually would to keep watch over the chicks, and she has not been seen yet today; authorities have been notified, and we're hoping she can be found and rescued. Sadly the chicks are also at risk - another female has been seen in the area, and while M15 is very dedicated, he may not be able to both protect them and provide them with food; keeping fingers crossed.
As of March 26th, Harriet has not returned, and searches in the area did not find any trace of her; happily both eagles are doing well, and have begun branching.
As of May 1, E22 is still around but E21 hasn't been seen since April 29 (115 days old, or 16-1/2 weeks); there has been no additional information on Harriet, and M15 did a wonderful job raising their chicks.

adults Starr(F), Valor I & Valor II
Starr's new mate for 2023 is being called Tarek on Facebook

As far as I know, there won't be a camera for 2023, though we may have reports (and great photos!) from local observers. Valor I may have nested with a different female (named Jolene by observers), while still showing some interest in the shared nest; Valor II and Starr produced eggs, but they didn't hatch, perhaps because Valor I had done much of the incubating in previous years, and wasn't available to do that this year. I am curious to see what happens next.

Update - March 6 - I just saw that they will be streaming soon; don't have details yet.

Sad, sad news - I just read on Facebook that there was a major windstorm on March 31, and the tree blew down. The adults are OK, but they aren't finding any sign of the eaglets (which I hadn't actually realized they had yet, since I'm way behind on updating my website). Tears.

new female in mid-February 2023; adults are not named

next eaglet will be ND18

The in-nest cam doesn't show the whole nest so hard to know if someone has fledged or is on one of the edges.
The nest collapsed towards the end of the 2022 season, and the eagles did a good job rebuilding over the winter. According to news reports and other information I found on line, the female was last seen on February 15; a new young female (maybe only 4 years old) appeared on the scene soon afterwards, and it appears that she and the male are becoming a pair, but no eggs this year.

adults Liberty (F) & Justice (M)

eaglet named Kay

Male Justice disappeared after fighting with an intruder in spring 2021; I think Liberty is still around, as is a male who is not Justice. Liberty was seen with several males in 2022, one of whom might have been Justice, but she did not lay any eggs last year.
Liberty appears to have a mate as of November 30, and there seems to be some disagreement about whether it's a new mate or Justice.
March 5, the cam operators reported there was an egg - no time stamp on the s'caps and I haven't seen additional information yet.
As of March 28, the Arconic Eagle Cam Facebook page is reporting that there are two eggs, and hatching is expected around April 9; I'm speculating that the second egg was laid on March 7, based on the fact that eggs are generally 3 days apart. They also said that since there was no way to confirm whether this was a new male, they would continue calling the pair Liberty and Justice.

a Raptor Resource Project nest

Mom Decorah & DM2

next eaglet will be D40

I think the eagles are still/again using a remote nest out of sight of the cams in 2023, and haven't heard much about them. The RRP website doesn't mention eggs or chicks in their 2023 nesting record - not sure if they didn't nest or used a new nest, or if the nest area was not accessible.

The geese are back in the eagles' old nest N2B and laid their first egg on March 21st. Five goose eggs as of March 28; full incubation started March 28; 6th egg laid on March 30 (time unknown).
First gosling hatched, 2:30 pm, April 24. All 6 eggs hatched - and all six goslings jumped from the nest the morning of April 26; five followed the adults to water and swam off; rescuers brought the 6th to join the rest, but it had an injured leg that prevented it from swimming, so it was recovered and taken to a vet to be checked out. Sadly the 6th chick had a spinal injury, and was humanely euthanized; the other five appeared to be doing fine.

a Raptor Resource Project nest
New cam for 2023

This is a new pair of eagles interested in the new starter nest RRP built near the fish hatchery at the N1 site where the original Decorah pair nested before moving to a new site for 2022. The new pair look young (female especially has shading on the head). They did not lay eggs in 2022, but RRP named them HM (Hatchery Mom) & HD (Hatchery Dad) in July, indicating that they appear to be committed to the site.

HM (Hatchery Mom) & HD (Hatchery Dad)

DH2

Sad news - RRP announced on April 6 that DH1 had passed away during the night; the weather was challenging and these are first-time parents - and they brought in a live fish as food for the newly hatched chick and then settled to incubate/brood the chick, egg, and flopping fish - so the chick may have been injured by all of that. There's a pip in the second egg, and we're hoping all will go well for that chick-to-be.
As of May 13, DH2 is doing great, and the parents are doing a wonderful job.

Mr North & 2020 female DNF

February 28 - the pair was apparently bothered by intruders last night, and the egg was left uncovered in sub-freezing weather; they didn't produce a second egg - also possibly because of intruder issues; as of March 15, only Mr North is incubating, and only part of the time.
Mr North stopped incubating on the evening on March 16; the non-viable egg was covered by snow later that evening. A second clutch is possible but probably not likely after this much time. Wishing them better luck in the future.
The non-viable egg broke the evening of March 21.

I have not yet found a web page or facebook group focused on this nest, so don't have a good source for information.
Update - March 28 - per Facebook group Bald Eagles Live Nest Cams and News, a necropsy confirmed that Majestic Dad died of avian flu; per the cam page, there's a new male being called Beau/Dad; the page provided dates and times for the three eggs.

There's not a clear view into the nest, but observers only saw one egg being laid, and as of May 1, have only seen one chick. The first feeding observed was on April 18, so they suspect that the chick hatched on the 17th.

This is a pair of eagles that nest near me; even though dates will be approximate, I'm adding them to this table for my own reference purposes. Their nest is a bit unique in that it's on an osprey platform on a small island in the Sasanoa River. My normal viewing point is on a bridge about 3/10 of a mile from the nest.

There are two streaming cams - with sound - new for the 2020 nesting season! The nest was not used in 2020, 2021 or 2022 - still hoping.
As of November 30, no one is nesting here, but eagles and great horned owls visit occasionally (happily not at the same time).

New nest for for 2023; no IR light; not much info yet

May 13 - pretty sure I saw three large eaglets on the nest when I looked in today; they are around 10 weeks old. I still haven't found much info about them.

E8 (8th for Nancy, first for Beau)/"Nugget"

Harry, the former new male, was last seen on April 26, 2022, and Nancy now has a new partner who is being called Beau on Facebook.
Sad news - one of the eggs broke on February 28; it was seen sticking to the male's brood patch when he stood up so the female could take over incubation; we may get an indication which egg it was based on the hatch date for the remaining egg.
The remaining egg hatched on March 26 so day 39 if #1, day 36 if #2.
April 2nd - more sad news - the nest fell down at 7:54 am; both adults are fine, and it looks as if it was just the nest, not the whole tree, that came down, but the DNR team that rushed to the site reported that the chick did not survive. Rest in peace, little one, and fly free and far beyond the rainbow.
I've learned that the school class that had been chosen to name the eaglet were calling the little one "Nugget" while they waited to learn the gender at banding before submitting their choice for the name; I'm adding that name to my record. I've also learned that the smallest of the three branches supporting the nest broke, probably from a combination of factors - the tree was older and some parts were dying, the snow on the nest was wet and heavy, and there was a lot of wind.

May 13 - I checked on Facebook, and observers think they have moved to a different nest; I didn't see any additional information, and it sounded as if there may be several nests in that general area, so not sure which (if any) is the pair we have been watching.

male is banded A59; new female for 2020

chicks will not be banded this year

Apparently the link changes frequently; if you get "not found" search on YouTube for Duke Farms Eagle Cam.
Both chicks were on the nest the morning of May 22nd; one flew off at 5:41 am and the other at 6:30 am; I watched them both on the rollback on the cam and both flew off strongly in the same general direction but the one who flew at 6:30 did some hopping from branch to branch and a bit more of the head-bobbing that helps eaglets determine how far away something is, so I'm thinking the earlier departure was the one who fledged the day before, and the later one was the fledge of the other chick.
Dad was last seen on May 19, 2023; he was 23 years old and helped raise over 30 fledglings. There were signs of a territorial dispute before he left.
June 23 - the nest collapsed, happily waiting until the fledglings no longer needed it.

Not sure about the timeline here, but I think the first chick hatched on April 1 or 2, and the second is reported as hatching on April 3rd. Sadly, at 2:06 pm on April 3rd, one of the chicks got caught on Mom's talons and dragged out of the nest cup; it wasn't able to get back and was near the rails by eveing; rest in peace, little one. I'm not sure which chick, though my guess is the younger one. Happily the third egg did hatch, and the two remaining chicks are looking good as of April 30th.

adults Freedom (M) and Liberty (F)

next eaglet will be H11

As of February 21, I need to do some research - quick look suggests that there is a new male being called Spot, and he may have had a new mate - and there may be other eagles around; no eggs yet, but there's still time. As of May 14, I'm still not sure what eagles are around, but am quite sure no one is using the nest with the cam at this point, and I haven't found any information as to whether the original eagles or a new pair or some combination are in the territory, though there are apparently also osprey around. I wish them all the best, wherever they are.
September 9 - I found a post that said that there apparently a nest takeover; it sounded as if Liberty disappeared first, and Freedom was back a few times, but he also hasn't been seen lately, and there was no indication yet if the nest would be used next year.

the PA Game Commission has asked that the eagles not be named;
nest is in Lancaster County; exact location not released to protect privacy of the land owner and the nest

The first egg hatched during the night so not sure of the time or even the date; March 20 is 41 days if this is egg #1 (rare, but could happen if incubation was slowed a bit or delayed longer than average).
It appears that only three hatched, so it's likely the first hatch was the second egg.
May 13 - observers are reporting that the female brought a squirrel to the nest as food, and it might have been either tangled in wire or set as bait in a snare as there appeared to be something metal dangling from the food as she was eating it; it's not clear if she swallowed the metal object (if there was one), and she hasn't been seen for a couple of hours; a call has been put in to the appropriate authorities. Update 5:55 pm - Mom brought in some smallish prey, and there was no sign of anything hanging out of her beak; keeping fingers crossed. May 14 - continuing to look as if everyone is doing well - fingers crossed.

Not sure where I found the time for laying of the first egg, but just saw a post saying it might have been 1:45 pm - minor difference, but I'll try to see if I can find
As of Friday, March 31st, Dad Obey has not been seen since Tuesday, March 28, and observers are naturally very concerned; the chicks are old enough to not need full-time care, but three chicks would be a major challenge for a single parent; keeping fingers crossed that Obey will be back soon.
More sad news - Dad Obey is still missing, and Mom River is doing a great job - but there are intruders fighting her for the food she tries to bring to the nest, and raising three chicks is always a challenge - and today, April 8, brave feisty youngest eaglet DH19 lost their battle to survive. I always knew it was a very long shot with only one parent, but I was so hoping.... DH19 was 32 days old. Sending good thoughts to the two remaining chicks.
More troubles at the nest - River brought in 3 large fish on April 19, and one apparently had quite a bit of fishing line attached; one or both got tangled and untangled a couple of times, eventually some of it got wrapped around at least one of D18's legs, and after a few more days, it looked as if D17 was tangled so the two were loosely tied together. The cam operators initially felt a rescue wasn't possible as the tree was on uneven terrain and the nest out on a branch, making it tricky for either a lift or a climber - but happily as word went out over the internet, the American Eagle Foundation (AEF) and others became involved, and a climber was able to go up on April 26 to check D17 (not entangled at that time and no apparent injuries) and rescue D18. As of April 29, they are still assessing the injuries done to D18's legs by the fishing line; they had originally hoped to return the eaglet to the nest, but now think he or she will be in care for at least two weeks, which means that there would be too much risk of D17 jumping for them to approach the nest.
Sad news - doctors discovered that the damage to D18's leg was more extensive than they had hoped, and the young eagle was humanely euthanized on May 3rd, at 61 days old. Fly free, far, and pain-free, brave young eagle, far beyond the sky.
DH17 flew off of the nest at 6:03 am on March 20, and arrived back from the same direction about 2 minutes later; from the cam view it's not clear if it was a true "fly away from the tree" fledge or advanced branching (fly-hop to another part of the tree), but the young eagle did the pre-flight head movements to assist triangulation, and the moderators are calling it a fledge - so it's a fledge! There is some concern because Mom River hasn't been seen in over 24 hours, and only brought one small fish the previous day; keeping fingers crossed that she arrives with food soon.
As of the morning of May 23, River has been seen at the nest a couple of times though I don't know that she's successfully delivered food (the nest is falling apart, so not much room for two large eagles). An adult (observers think it was River) landed, possibly with a small amount of food; DH17 dove for the food (and foot of the adult), there were lots of flapping wings, the cam froze for an instant and when it started streaming again, the adult was gone and the youngster was on the edge of the nest and ended up hanging upside down briefly before releasing and dropping, wings spread, to branches below. AEF has been contacted, and are arranging to get someone in to the tree to check on the eaglet.
AEF reported that the eaglet was not found on the ground, so it is likely that the eaglet is perched somewhere and being cared for by the adults - and people in the area could disturb that, so the person who went to check on the eaglet withdrew.
Happy news - May 26 - DH17 returned to the nest at about 6:40 am, and as of late afternoon, River has provided three fish to the fledgling, who is very full and resting on the nest; viewers had been hearing DH17 calling, so were confident the youngster was in the area - and it's not unusual to take a couple of days to build up the strength to fly up to a nest.
Dale Hollow observers are reporting that it appears that a consistent male intruder/possible new mate was first seen on April 11, 14 days after Obey disappeared; it's not easy to find obvious distinguishing characteristics, especially in brief visits, but they've spent some time analyzing screenshots and are fairly certain as of June 4.
It sounds as if the new male is bringing food to the nest (possibly more to impress River than to provide for the chick, but the chick is getting some of the food. DH17 was still being seen in mid-June when the cam went offline.

Elfruler has reported there's a new male - need to get details

Per a post on the RTSU Eagle Cams Facebook page, after an online vote by viewers, the new male was named Franklin 3/22/23 "in honor of the State of Franklin, proposed in the late 1700s as what is currently East Tennessee."

No cam in 2022 and I don't know if there will be one in 2023.
No cam, but the Harrison Bay Eagle Cam Facebook page has picture of three large, healthy looking eaglets so it looks as if Elliott and Athena are having a good year.

an American Eagle Foundation cam at Dollywood

adults Honor (M) and Braveheart (F)
Honor and Braveheart are a bonded pair of non-releasable eagles who were transferred to AEF from the San Francisco Zoo in 2007; as of July 2022, Braveheart is 27 and Honor is 34, so it won't be surprising if they don't produce any chicks.

As of September 10, 2023, I haven't seen any updates.

other news from Dollywood

April 26, 2022 - I just found a video from September 2020 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xu7vqRRlBhM) where AEF explained that because bald eagles were no longer endangered and the number of pairs was continuing to grow, they were no longer permitted to encourage new breeding pairs, though the 5 bonded pairs they then had at Dollywood would continue to be together and may produce additional chicks, though they are all 20+ years old, so not as fertile as when they were young. AEF will still provide a home for non-releasable bald eagles, but they will have two large aviaries, one for males and one for females. Their spokesperson said they would be adjacent to each other so eagles who had been in the "pick a mate" enclosure would still be able to see and exchange calls with each other, and she said none of the eagles being separated had formed true pair bonds but just seemed to enjoy each other's company. Definitely a bit of a change - and an explanation for why we've been hearing less about the pairs there recently.

next eaglet will be SM19

As of November 2020, AEF said the cam isn't streaming and there are no updates but they are still in the area with a new nest.
Still no news as of March 10, 2022.

JBS is for John Bunker Sands Wetland Center where the nest is located

JBS18
JBS19

The pair nested in a tree out of sight of the cam in 2022 and raised 2 chicks; we're hoping they return to the nest with the cam for 2023.
As of a January 10 update from JBS, the eagles did some work on the nest with the cam, but appear to be nesting in the tree again.
February 28 - JBS reports that two eaglets have been observed in the nest in the tree.
September 10 - per the John Bunker Sands Facebook page, both fledged successfully. They were not seen on the property afterwards, but without a cam or a convenient view of the nest tree, it's not surprising that they weren't spotted.

cam not streamed but good video coverage on Facebook

Ringo
Boots

Younger eaglet Boots was rescued from the nest on February 2nd; the post said he appeared weak, and there may be some deformities in his legs and feet (they said "he" - don't know if that's been determined, or just for simplicity).
Sad news - Boots passed peacefully early this morning, February 3rd; he was 3 weeks old. The staff at the Wildlife Center of Texas was able to keep him warm and comfortable, and said "He was definitely a fighter, but there were so many things working against him and in the end it was just too much for his fragile little body." Rest in peace, young one, and fly free, far beyond the sky.

DG3/Pi

DG5/Flora

Elfruler is listing the hatch for #2 on March 16; the activity log lists the sighting at 3:13 am on the 17th as the confirmed time of hatch, so I'll use that although it seems likely that the chick may have hatched a bit earlier.
May 29 - the nest has been starting to collapse in the last day or so, and at 12:58 am, the edge where DG4 was sleeping gave way and the eaglet slipped from the nest; it looked as if the youngster tried to get a grip on a branch while flapping, but wasn't successful; DG4 is 73 days old, so close to fledging; the eaglet was rescued and is being assessed; the rescuer thinks she's female based on size, but I think the vet at intake thought he was male - and I think they took a blood sample, so we may know eventually.
Eaglets' names were chosen in an online contest - DG3 hatched on Pi Day, DG4 hatched on St Patrick's Day, and DG5's name is in honor of spring.
June 2 - another section of the nest gave way at 6:48 am, and DG3/Pi fel and was subsequently rescued; Pi is 80 days old, so within the range when fledging is possible, but apparently wasn't ready to fly; youngest chick DG5/Flora (75 days old) is perched on what remains of the nest.
The rest of the nest came down at 7 pm on June 5; happily Flora is flying now, though I suspect she or he will miss having a place to stretch out and rest since it's a bit soon for full-time perching.
June 7 - Pi was released near the nest tree shortly after 3 pm; it was determined that Pat needed more flight practice before release, so Pat is being transferred to a facility where he or she will be able to spend more time learning to fly and to be an eagle before being released later this spring/summer.
June 13 - not sure if it's the first time they were together on cam, but Pi and Flora were perched on the same branch at 6:05 am, not exactly side by side - but close.
Pi and Flora were both seen on June 29, July 14, July 22 (Flora seen alone a few times as well), and possibly later, but not that often.
Aug 29 - Wildlife Center of VA announced that Pat would be released near the nest in the next few days; observers noticed a young eagle on the cam September 9 - maybe?
None of the eaglets were DNA tested or banded; observers thought Pat was male based on size.
September 11 - three juveniles were seen perched near each other on the cam this afternoon - no way to know if it's Pi, Pat and Flora but it certainly seems possible - eagles the right age have been seen from time to time through the summer, so they may still be around.

Observers think there was a hatch on March 1st. A photographer got a picture of a chick on March 22nd. Two eaglets were seen in the nest on April 10.
Eaglet photographed branching on May 5.
Both fledged successfully and were in the area for at least several weeks, maybe a month or more.

(It's normal for only one eaglet to survive; the younger is usually killed by the older within a few days of hatching. It's also normal for juveniles to stay in their parents' territory for about 3 months after fledging, being fed and learning to hunt. Hatch watch begins on day 44.)

NOTES

Additional Nests - need more info before trying to add:

FL - Camp Margaritaville, Auburndale - 2 chicks by Jan 22; CM2 died March 4 - apparently there was a lot of rivalry but I don't know the details

MD - Masonville Cove, Baltimore - eggs 1/23 and 1/26

Nests with cams above here updated for 2023 - will get to the others soon!
